Hasselblad 1.7x converter on Leica S?

[gm22New Member Join Date: Oct 2013 Posts: 6 Offline]

Hello,

I was wondering if anyone has any experience with the hasselblad 1.7x convert on the Leica S? I own the Hasselblad 300mm f4.5 and the Leica S Hasselblad adapter and when I connect the 1.7x converter it will not show the aperture for the 300mm lens and creates green lines in the picture. Just trying to find out if anyone else has any experience.

thanks

Gage,

As listed on the Leica press release for the S-Adapter H, the HC 1.7x is not supported.
